[Verse 1]
They turned their backs on me
for loving who I love
Said I’d burn for it
like that came from above
Packed up my name
in a black trash bag
Left that old house
and I never looked back
I ate their shame
then spit it in the sink
Prayed in the dark
when I couldn’t even think
Now I got a table
with room for my tears
New faces, real hugs
I can breathe in here
[Pre-Chorus]
If pain was a door
I kicked it open
If loss was a prison
I broke the code then
He shook me hard
till my bones got right
Now I stand tall
in a different light
[Chorus]
I’m finally free
I’m finally free
God broke me down
to build me clean
I’m finally free
I’m finally free
New blood, new love
new family
[Verse 2]
I used to fold small
try to stay polite
Swallow my truth
just to make them smile
Now I say her name
like a prayer on fire
And I don’t flinch
when they call me liar
You can keep that house
with the locked-up doors
I found a home
in the people who want more
More truth, more grace
more hands in the fight
More room at the table
more wrong made right
[Pre-Chorus]
If pain was a door
I kicked it open
If loss was a prison
I broke the code then
He shook me hard
till my bones got right
Now I stand tall
in a different light
[Chorus]
I’m finally free
I’m finally free
God broke me down
to build me clean
I’m finally free
I’m finally free
New blood, new love
new family
[Bridge]
Yeah, I cried in the rain
with my jaw clenched tight
Still I kept my faith
through the sleepless nights
What they meant to kill
turned into my seed
Now I bloom hard
like I was meant to breathe
[Final Chorus]
I’m finally free
I’m finally free
God broke me down
to build me clean
I’m finally free
I’m finally free
New blood, new love
new family
I’m finally free
I’m finally free
I was lost before
now I believe
